[thangQanime]

[zuzuRahg]

Hey I think thousands of flash users would love to see a asdf movie tutorial of you, I think it's not that difficult and it would be a great beginner tutorial. I know asdf clips are not rly your section (I think) but please make this tutorial =)

[IwillKillYourCereal]

In CS5.5, you can't double click the buttons like that :(

[tropical11keish]

[REsidentVille]

This guy can teach a 5 year old flash in 1 month

[Omatusano]

So can i use scripting to change the number for the single frame mode in the properties for the graphic? I think it would be a cool way to do armor sets and stuff or facial expressions.

[Stubenhockerin13]

thanx you saved my ass XD

i would never haved figured this out on my one untill tomorrow

[riztee]

I am following your tutorial however my flash is not having the same results . When I make my character a symbol i dont get access to the layers?!? I only get one later on the timeline. The body, arms. legs etc are gone ?! I cant figure out what I can do to fix this.. can anyone help please?

[DoodleSaga]

[kyler1man]

very nice and well done professional tutorials i didnt even think twice about subscribing but i hope you dont mind if i ask a question. I am curently using Macromedia flash 8 but for a while i have never been able to export a movie clip. the only way im able to view the movie clip in action is during the swf playback. for instence in your tutorial on your movie clip timeline on frame 50 it turned purple and also on the actual timeline. But not for me only when i preview it in swf

[kaimisawesome]

excellent tutorial man. i've been trying to figure out how to make flash movies easier for me and i figured it was related to symbols.

[InsaneVerigo]

Its not purple...

[SaiGollapudi]

great tutorial. Loved the clarity, pace and articulation. I am learning a lot from your stuff. Grateful for your work and encourage you to keep going. Thanks a million.

[Jorrexx]

hey, I just followed the tutorial how I had to make a cartoon character, so I did and I actually succeeded (TY!!), but now I need to convert it to a symbol in order to make it move (as you say in another tutorial), but when I do so, some parts of the cartoon on different layers change places, like the arm goes under the body, so I can't see it anymore, the neck pops up, so it's above the head. How do I fix all this ? If I lock the layers of those parts, I can't select them anymore. Please help!!

[CocahColah]

"I'm going to go ahead and..." haha :P nice tutorial. :D

[woowoo14598]

its difficult



[MrBlackPhilosophy]

Thank you very much for this turotial!

I really learned the basics, i hadn't understand before.

[swedenips]

i'm going to be honest, i love you.

i had a workshop tutorial last year on this and had since completely forgotten how to do the symbol within a symbol technique. thank goodness i found you!

[ryizzen]

not purple and not a square but thanks man great tut :D

[solibe1]

this guy is a born teacher, everything is quite clear. thanks.

[Faruece]

That's BLUE

[huwgojones]

how do you set up the symbols for lip synching and bring them onto the stage? something about selecting a number that corresponds with the graphic but ive seen it done but i havent seen it explained

[threemilesfromthesea]

Another excellent tutorial from lilredheadcomics

[HurtNerds]

I don't have a square tool with my version.

[juliasthang]

You have to go back to the geometry class, it's a rectangle not a square.

Just a little joke to make you laugh *.-

[Rockyroopam]

WOW that made me laugh so hard! HAHAHA-no.

[egukoucu]

invaluable tutorials man , I'm going trough all of them. can't express how gratefull I am :)

[pikafurret101]

lol you're calling rectangles squares, and the blue rectangle purple--although we knew what you meant ;-) Very nice and straight to the point. I would like to see a tutorial about Movie Clips in their entirety, because i read that they are lousy with sound streaming and i should use graphics for cartoons instead, so i'm just wondering which is really better for an actual DVD burnable movie. It's nice how you're actually teaching, as if you were standing behind us and guiding us through Flash

[markecccc889]

21:35 spell error

[firelily]

This is indeed an incredible flash tutorial.

Very well explained, good slow pace for beginners and also very good video resolution! Thanks for sharing!

[kum4r5]

Thanks Brother ... Learned a lot ..

Peace in the hood and Smoke Some Bud

[hobnobz]

Great tutorial. Its cleared stuff up that I have never been 100% sure about for years.

[drako1228]

nice tut! but you do realize that what you keep calling a square is actually a RECTANGLE right?lol

[joel4477]

Very helpful tutorial, rated 5 stars, would watch again :DDD

[pandasnot96]

are you colorblind?

[Skwart]

looks like it

[CMYKCommodoll]

Also, Im sorry if you have answered this before but what program are you using to capture your screen? Thanks!

[CMYKCommodoll]

These videos are great, your voice isn't awful like most of the users who post tutorials. To the point and helpful! You are definitely a good teacher. Thank you!

[judefekter]

dude that really helped i had problem with flash cs4

[GiveMeUrCookies]

is mouse bubble comming up when you click or hold a effect you add or do you use a tablet?,Anyway's really nice made tutorial's didnt even know about the bonetool before i saw your tutorial ,but im a game devloper so i dont really use animation often....but still make more of those tutorial's.

[SawyerCC]

hello, im using adobe flash professional 8, and there's no bone tool, can i still do animations smoothly without the bone tool?

[LilredheadComics]

You will be able to do animations just fine without the bone tool.  The bone tool does make some functions easier and quicker. But with a little time and patience you can achieve similar results with Flash 8.

[MilexProductions]

how do you know where to position bone joints?

[sacredgeometry]

@SawyerCC the bone cool is for cutout style animation and doesnt really allow for smooth animation, frame to frame animation will and the process for that hasnt really improved or changed much since macromedia owned flash.

[sacredgeometry]

@SawyerCC *tool

[mazerollef]

Very complete and useful.
